"I first heard of Rehab back in 2000 when somebody did a cover of the song "Sittin at a Bar" and I had to find out who sang it b/c it was hot. So, I went out and purchased Rehab's "Southern Discomfort" album, which I thought was an instant classic and have been playing for the last 7+ years. My other favorite songs on this album are "Drinkin Problem", "It Don't Matter" "Hey Fred", "Storm Chaser", and "Rattle My Cage". If you like Sublime or Linkin Park, you'll definitely like Rehab.
The band broke up after this album, when Danny Boone and Brooks Buford had their "creative differences". Danny was the singer while Brooks was the rapper. Danny kept the band and the name while Brooks went on to do his own thing and I must say Rehab is not the same without them together. I've seen the new Rehab in concert a few times and while they still make good music, it's not like it used to be. It's too bad they couldn't work something out, b/c they were money as a tandem.
Do yourself a favor and don't buy this "new" album called Sittin at a Bar that's been remastered and edited and go find the original called "Southern Discomfort" with Brooks Buford on it. That's the real Rehab. If it's not on Amazon, go try ebay or something."
DO NOT BUY THIS VERSION!!

"Why? Because it is a rip off from Epic records. When Epic wouldn't re-sign the band, Rehab went to Universal Republic & as Danny B. A. put it "they welcomed us with open arms." That's when Epic repackaged the disc. Any Rehab fan knows why the song had to be "re-worked" from Sittin' at a bar to Bartender song.
So, DO NOT BUY THIS VERSION,(cartoon) if you do you'll be supporting the RIP OFFS! Buy the re-relesed Graffiti the World & catch this and 3 more new songs."
